Tire Size Recommendations please!

FAM3 · 07-09-2013, 02:06 PM

Hey guys, picking up some new rims from my 2012 E92 LCI Coupe with these offsets:

19x8.5 et 30
19x10 et 37

I would love to run better tires for more grip as I used to have 255 in the rear and it just was not cutting it. My car is lowered on KW-V2 and is pretty low. Would I be able to fit these specs nicely or shall I get something different?

235/35/19
275/30/19

I have rolled my fender before as well but when I was running a 19x9.5 et23 I was just BARELY rubbing on my 255 stretch. I hope that information helps. Thanks I am a tire NOOB!

those tire sizes will fit perfectly fine and match each other perfectly too.

Should I go bigger in front if I could?

NO.

235F/275R are perfect size front to back in wheel diameter. Any higher up front and you will risk ruining your speedo readings.

The height of the front and rear tires is about the same. With a 275 in the rear you may need to roll the quarters though, since you said you're pretty low.
